Yak shaving

Yes, my futzing around (described in the earlier post) actually has a name. It's called yak shaving, the causal chain of events which lead you from rational, thesis writing work to frantic Googling for LaTex formatting tips and positioning commands.

Words to live by

I must not drink beer.
Beer is the mind killer.
Beer is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my beer.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past.
I will turn my inner eye to see it's path.
Where the beer has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
